Ode- Things Have Fallen Apart (in Memory Of Chinua Achebe) by DaDevin: 3:33pm On Jun 04, 2013
Silence a tool for fools
Yet it fell apart upon foolish fools
Did Thou not see tomorrow?
Did thou not speak of greaver sorrow?
How your words fell upon the deaf
Before your eyes, things fell apart
Things you saw and presented in art

You saw greed, you saw envy, you saw lust
you saw as they beclouded as dust
You saw them all as one never apart
Things you saw before it fell apart
For all is one - corruption
Things has fallen apart
Even unto your death it stood apart
